Take

I'm at the end of my rope,
hanging high, afraid to let go.
So I'll tie a knot to hold on to,
all the things I'm not proud of.
Can I stand and look at my own achievements,
and say that it was all worth it?
Can I stand with what I've got,
and say it was all worth the cost?
I may lose my own salvation,
but I'll tell you that I've got it all.
A house with a broken family,
is not a place that I call home.
Money breeds the green disease,
it's a power lust sought out like thieves.
I'm taking off this fool's gold crown, to cast it at Your feet.
So would You please come,
and shine Your light, expose my darkest sin.
I want to let You in.
God, help me see this through.
Christ, help me be more like You.
Strike the match, and let me burn from within.
Let grace fan my flame, and my passion never dim.
So take the world, you can have it,
but give me the one, who overcame it.
So take the world, You can have it all,
take it off my shoulders God.
I've tried to carry the weight for so long.
God, I'm so sorry for, everything.
Your love has made a way, we lead ourselves astray.
You came and took my place.
God, I'm so sorry for, everything.
